Anyone else experienced an annoying rattle from the parcel shelf?
If so how did you fix it?

I didn’t experienced this with either of my first two Qashqais, so no first hand recommendations.

However, it’s cropped up regularly.

I suppose it's properly clipped in is it? I didn't have problems with mine.

Yes it is, although I would have to say its the flimsiest parcel shelf I've ever seen.

I have just driven home from work actually and it was really annoying, may not seem much but on a £34K car it shouldn't be like this.

It is indeed very flimsy, but no rattle on mine.
Check the two rubber pieces on the tailgate where the shelf rests.

Thanks, I will have a look, but I think the rattle is coming from the passenger side near the back of the seat where it "clips in" although to me it more just rests there rather than positively clips.

Just make sure it's not a panoramic roof blind if you have it in your car. Initially I thought it was parcel shelf in my car but it turns out its a sunblind mechanism. I'm due for inspection at the dealer tomorrow. We will see what happens 🤷‍♂️

Hi
Yes am sure its the shelf, doesn't rattle when removed. I've wedged a piece of hi density black foam in there now and that has cured it,

Yes for a car that costs in excess of 32000 the parcel shelf is indeed probably the flimsiest shelf of any car I’ve owned and have also an annoying rattle from it from day one (August 1st) but am going to get dealer to sort it,bugger having to pad it out with foam or newspaper shouldn’t be happening on a car of this cost!!
